is a statewide organization driven by CEOs from the state’s leading employers, all working toward a shared goal: making Michigan a Top 10 state for jobs, talent, and a thriving economy. Guided by research and diverse perspectives, BLM develops strategies, shapes public policy, and drives initiatives that bring people and ideas together to ignite change — for growth, shared prosperity, and lasting progress.

Position Overview

Business Leaders For Michigan seeks a strategic and analytically minded Associate, Public Policy, & Strategic Initiatives to play a critical role in advancing Business Leaders For Michigan’s priorities through strategic analysis, policy development, and project execution. Working closely with the Vice President for Strategic Initiatives and other members of the team, the Public Policy & Strategic Initiatives Associate will manage research, report development, and initiative implementation projects across the organization’s focus areas.

Reporting & Communication: Create compelling presentations, dashboards, and written reports that convey findings to internal and external stakeholders

 

Qualifications

This position is ideal for a strategic, analytically minded professional with two to three years of experience in management consulting, corporate strategy, or policy research. The selected candidate will be comfortable navigating multi-stakeholder environments and motivated by the opportunity to influence public policy and economic progress in Michigan.

 

Skills and Abilities

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to tailor messages for executive and policymaker audiences

• Proven organizational and time management skills, with the ability to manage multiple priorities independently

• Proficiency in data analysis tools (e.g., Excel) and data visualization platforms (e.g., Tableau, Power BI)

• Strong interpersonal skills with the ability to build and sustain relationships across sectors

 

Experience and Education

• Bachelor’s degree in public policy, economics, business, political science, data analytics, or a related field

• 2–3 years of professional experience in a top-tier consulting firm, think tank, or corporate strategy team

• Demonstrated experience leading projects and delivering results in complex, fast-paced environments

• Familiarity with public policy issues related to economic development, talent, or education is strongly preferred

• Passion for creating systemic impact through data-informed policy and strategic collaboration

 

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

• Opportunity to contribute to initiatives that shape Michigan’s economic competitiveness and long-term prosperity

• Exposure to high-level strategic work alongside prominent business leaders and policy experts

• Mission-driven, collaborative culture focused on impact and innovation

• Statewide influence with national relevance in public policy and economic development

• Competitive compensation and benefits package
